I  share my deepest condolences for the family and friends of Chris Lucena. I worked with Chris on an off over the years and you could not ask for a more committed person to the efforts of those he worked for and with. He had a dry sense of humor and always loved to have a good laugh. He is missed. May God bless him and those he has left behind.  

Warm Regards, 
Jonathan E. Cox

Only knew Chris for a short couple of years but from the moment we met him, he made you feel like you had known each other for years. That’s just the kind of guy he was. Easy to connect with and love. Always happy with a positive attitude. He will be missed greatly.

To the Lucena family, from Chris’s Bahamian family. I will never forget Chris’s laugh, and times spent together in Boca, and Nassau. While after my time in university in South Florida, we were only lucky enough to see Chris every few years, it truly was always a treat and I knew lots of belly laughs would be shared. My sincere condolences to Chris’s loved ones, I know his absence leaves an immeasurable hole, one that can never be filled. I will cherish the memories, and laughs
Love Karla Wells Lisgaris 

Posting this picture and reliving some great memories Chris and I shared leaves me speechless. Anyone who’s met Chris was left with a strong impression. Chris was an honorable man and a man that could be trusted. He would be the first to help out a friend and he had never met a stranger. His laugh was every bit as infectious as one could remember. A seemingly nothing subject or sentence could be turned into a full knee slapping belly laugh before you knew it and though I was temporarily banned from using his grill, he sure loved his bbq and his boat. The world was a better place with him in it. 

Lisette and the Lucena family,

We are so sorry for your loss. We wish we could be there to celebrate Chris’ life. From everything you told me, Chris was a wondering husband and the way he made you smile only tells me he was a beautiful person. 

You and his family are in our thoughts during this time. If you need anything, we are here. Wishing you peace, comfort, and lots of love at this time of sorrow.

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
                         But O heart! heart! heart!
                            O the bleeding drops of red,
                               Where on the deck my Captain lies,
                                  Fallen cold and dead.

O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
                         Here Captain! dear father!
                            This arm beneath your head!
                               It is some dream that on the deck,
                                 You’ve fallen cold and dead.

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
                         Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
                            But I with mournful tread,
                               Walk the deck my Captain lies,
                                  Fallen cold and dead.

Chris, 

I will always cherish your guidance, your patience, and your trust.  You helped me to help others.  I really can't thank you enough for that.

Do not think of me as gone.  I am with you still in each new dawn.” – Native American Poem

I have known and worked with Chris for at least 8 years now...?? Complete shock that you are gone brother but so thankful to know you.  My heavy hearted condolences to his wife, family, and friends.  You will be missed. 

The author, Anna Todd said, “The brightest stars burn the fastest. So, we must love them while we can.” Chris approached life and business with a strong moral compass and a conviction for excellence. His passion for life was infectious. I’m grateful for the time I spent with him. I will forever miss him. I’m positive that for years to come, I will instinctively reach for my phone, to contact a star that burned out far too soon.

Cheers my friend.

Dear Lisette,

I am so very sorry for your sudden loss. My heart goes out to you, and you and your family are in my thoughts. 

Sending my deepest sympathy and caring wishes,

Thinking of you,

Our deepest sympathies to Chris's family, colleagues, and friends. Chris was a person you wanted in your corner. When problems arose it was amazing to watch Chris in action. His purpose, determination, and talents were a marvel to behold. Most importantly Chris cared. Chris was quality. May God bless him and his family.

I’ve known and worked with Chris for almost 5 years now. In that time I learned of the hard working, dedicated,  and the straight shooter  he was.  I will miss that banter and the disagreements we had   May your  light continue to shine in the life’s of those you touched  and inspired.  You will be missed 

We met in 2016 and quickly became friends and road warriors while working at Allcovered/ Konica Minolta. I will always cherish the time we spent together on the road and on the golf course. It was through that friendship that you decided to sink your personal time and resources into helping me grown professionally. I owe a lot of my professionalism and work ethic to you, your mentorship, and your lead by example attitude. 

I will miss you my friend. Brittany, Weston, and I will always hold you near and dear to our hearts! 

You will be missed my friend. I am so very grateful that my son was able to meet you. 

This was during the brief time, Bruce, Chris, and I all worked together at Wellcare ♥️

Chris was one of our closest friends and was the absolute best!! Our hearts are absolutely broken, as his life had just truly began with the love of his life Lisette. We will never forget all the fun times out on the boat, fishing, cooking, drinking, and most of all his infectious laugh. We love you, Chris! You were taken way too soon 😢 Until we meet again, RIP dear friend.

This was Chris at our wedding, he always knew how to work a room and make everyone feel like they were his buddy.

Dearest Lisette,
I am so sorry for the sudden and unimaginable loss of your husband Chris.  Sending prayers of comfort to you, his friends and family.  In the coming days ahead, may the Lord hold you in the palm of His hand to find peace in the beautiful memories you shared.  I'll be thinking of you.
Noelle 

What a kind, wonderful, thoughtful man. I will miss you brother.

Chris enjoying his mom's amazing paella for his birthday celebration in Fort Lauderdale, before our boat trip to the Bahamas. I remember Chris slept in the boat, parked it the hotel parking with his gun to to make sure the boat stayed safe for the trip. 

I met Chris at least 12 years ago & from the beginning we developed not only a professional relationship but a friendship. I could “always” 
count & trust Chris & his expertise .  
What memory when I think back?  
His laugh was infectious!!!
Chris & Dan Rodgers waiting for a delayed freight delivery at our office in Jersey that got held up till 3 am.  They laughed & took a nap in the waiting room!  That’s dedication!  
Most recently, his & Shane’s dance off at a software convention.  I couldn’t pick a winner!  
My prayers go out to his wife, family & friends. The world has lost a special soul.  Rest In Peace Chris. You will be missed❤️


Chris was kind and compassionate. He will will be missed.  

Hello,

I'm so sorry for your loss.  My deepest sympathy to Lisette and all of the family.
Amy Wiley

I have worked with Chris for almost 10 years, and in that time, I have seen the good, the bad, and the "not-so-pretty" in life.  I know that he seemed truly happy with the way his life was going, and when he told me of his nuptials, he was glowing.  I am saddened by the loss, and my heart goes out to everyone that he has touched and affected in this world.  We shall see him in the next adventure, and I raise a toast to his memories. 

Our deepest condolences to Lisette and the rest of the Lucena family.  You are in our thoughts and we wish you comfort and peace during this most difficult time. 
Love from, 
Megan and Jason Berroth
